Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope is your change in y over your change in x. The ordered pair is in the form of (x,y), so you subtract the y's and put that in your numerator (top)and subtract your x's and put that in your denominators (bottom).

2 - (-4) would be your top number. To subtract a negative number is the same as adding a positive, so 2 - (-4) is the same as 2 +4, so your top number is 6.

Now, to find the bottom number, you subtract the x's.

5-2 which is 3.

We now have the top and the bottom number

6/3 which is the same as 2.

Answer:

14.04

Step-by-step explanation:

$19^{2}$ - $17^{2}$ = 72

$\sqrt{72}$ = 8.48

8.48 + 8.48 = 16.96

31 - 16.96 = 14.04

mihalych1998 [28]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

sin 54 degrees = Height/718.0624

Height = (sin 54 degrees)(718.0624) = 580.9 ft

So the height of the balloon is 580.9 ft. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

Which function is a quadratic function? u(x) = –x 3x2 – 8 v(x) = 2x2 8x3 9x y(x) = x2 3x5 4 z(x) = 7x2 2x3 – 3.

Komok [63]

The function $u(x)=-x+3x^{2} -8$ is a quadratic function due to the highest exponent being 2.

Given functions are:

$u(x)=-x+3x^{2} -8$

$v(x)=2x^{2} +8x^3+9x$

$y(x)=x^{2} +3x^5+4$

$z(x) =7x^{2} +2x^3-3$

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A function of the form $f(x)=ax^{2} +bx+c$ with $a\neq 0$ is called a quadratic function means the highest exponent of polynomial should be 2.
